Accessing strain data¶

asimov-gwdata is capable of retrieving gravitational wave strain data from the Gravitational wave open science centre.

We can do this using the download section of the blueprint, and setting the frames argument. We also need to set the file length, which can be either 32 or 4096 for a 32-second or 4096-second frame.

Note

The frames download type only retrieves public strain data from GWOSC. There is currently no configuration option to download proprietary LIGO/Virgo/KAGRA frame data through this data type.
